Filesystem without any file have 33 Mbytes used !?!
|
|
|
| Hi,
I was looking at the usage of the filesystems of a server, and looks like :
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 3.8G 2.5G 1.1G 70% /
/dev/sda2 7.3G 349M 6.6G 5% /usr
/dev/sda3 9.2G 59M 8.6G 1% /usr/local
/dev/sda5 9.2G 1.8G 6.9G 20% /var
/dev/sda6 9.2G 870M 7.8G 10% /var/log
/dev/sda7 4.6G 33M 4.3G 1% /usr/src
/dev/sda9 26G 22G 3.3G 87% /home
I've done a : ls -al /usr/src, as root, and the result is nothing here
except "lost+found" directory wich is empty...
Do you know why this filesystem as 33Mbytes used ?
And how i can see what is using this ?
Thanks a lot.

Yes, I do.

The filesystem is using it as a journal.
Ergo, you're using a journaled filesystem 
Run the relevant tunefs.* command on the partition to see everything there
is to know about it.
I can't tell you which one since you don't show what filesystem is actually
on it.

It is an ext3 partition, i've seen that tune2fs could be used, but
haven't seen any option to show some output, but nevermind and thanks
for your answer !
